Summary

Bartley Elementary is a public elementary school located in Fulton, Missouri, serving 252 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Fulton 58 School District, which is ranked 207 out of 367 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bartley Elementary has shown fluctuating performance on state assessments, with some grades and subjects performing better than others. While the school's 4th-grade math and 5th-grade science proficiency rates are higher than the district and state averages, its 3rd-grade math and ELA proficiency rates are significantly lower. The school's White students and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) students have also shown varying performance compared to their peers statewide. Additionally, Bartley Elementary has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, which can negatively impact student learning and achievement.

Compared to nearby schools in the Fulton 58 district, Bartley Elementary's performance is mixed. The school's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio may contribute to its academic performance, but the school also serves a population with a higher proportion of low-income students. Continued efforts to address chronic absenteeism and improve student outcomes, particularly in the lower-performing grades and subjects, could be beneficial for Bartley Elementary.
